A sobering and fascinating study on war in the modern era, Unrestricted Warfare carefully explores strategies that militarily and politically disadvantaged nations might take in order to successfully attack a geopolitical super-power like the United States. American military doctrine is typically led by technology; a new class of weapon or vehicle is developed, which allows or encourages an adjustment in strategy. Military strategists Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui argue that this dynamic is a crucial weakness in the American military.

The world we are living in has been undergoing modernization for more than three centuries.

Progressive as it may sound, it has led the Earth to have a myriad of never-ending issues. In his book, Dr. Jalil Ahmad has discussed these issues quite in detail. Apart from shedding light on these massive problems, Dr. Ahmad has proposed a remarkable solution that will prove to be a breakthrough in the history of the world.

It has become axiomatic to contend that U.S. foreign policy must adapt to an era of renewed "great-power competition." The United States went on a quarter-century strategic detour after the Cold War, the argument goes, basking in triumphalism and getting bogged down in the Middle East. Now China and Russia are increasingly challenging its influence and undercutting the order it has led since 1945. How should it respond to these two formidable authoritarian powers?

Pakistan's pathway to developing nuclear weapons remains shrouded in mystery and surrounded by misconceptions. While it is no secret why Pakistan became a nuclear power, how Pakistan became a nuclear state has been obscured by mythmaking.

El 24 de febrero comenzó una nueva guerra en Europa. Un conflicto que evoca la Guerra Fría, conflictos inacabados y consecuencias terribles. La guerra de Ucrania no es algo nuevo, aunque sí ha adoptado una dimensión totalmente diferente por los actores que la desarrollan y por representar la ruptura del orden internacional vigente.

Imperien entstehen, verfallen und fallen. Die Geschichte hat diesen Zyklus mit den Römern, den Osmanen und den Briten miterlebt. Alle sind zusammengebrochen, und wenn wir nicht aufpassen, werden die USA als nächstes dran sein. Viele der heutigen Unternehmen sind eine Gruppe von finanztechnischen Fröschen, die extrem abhängig von Schulden sind, die im lauwarmen Schlangenöl versinken. Leider werden viele ihr Verschwinden in den Fängen der Geier der PI finden.

Empires rise, decline, and fall. History has witnessed this cycle with the Romans, the Ottomans, and the British. They have all toppled, and if we are not careful, the US will be the next. Many of today’s enterprises are a gaggle of debt-addicted extreme financial engineering frogs floundering in tepid snake oil. Unfortunately, many will find their demise in the clutches of IP vultures.

In this gripping essay, Hugh White explores Australia’s fateful choice to back America to the hilt and oppose China. What led both sides of politics to align with America so absolutely? Is this a case of sleepwalking to war? What tests might a new government face? White assesses America’s credibility and commitment, by examining AUKUS, the Quad, Trump and Biden. He discusses what the Ukraine conflict tells us about the future. And he argues that the US can neither contain China nor win a war over Taiwan. So where does this leave our future security and prosperity in Asia?

Backed by Brazil’s wealthy agribusiness groups, a growing evangelical movement, and an emboldened military and police force, Jair Bolsonaro took office in 2019. Driven by the former army captain’s brand of controversial, aggressive rhetoric, the divisive presidential campaign saw fake news and misinformation shared with Bolsonaro’s tens of millions of social media followers.

Too often, we are told that Russia plays a weak hand well. But, perhaps the nation's cards are better than we know. Russia ranks behind the US and China by traditional measures of power: GDP, population size and health, and military might. Yet twenty-five years removed from its mid-1990s nadir following the collapse of the USSR, Russia has become a supremely disruptive force in world politics. Kathryn E. Stoner assesses the resurrection of Russia and argues that we should look beyond traditional means of power to assess its strength in global affairs.

Elliot Ackerman left the American military ten years ago, but his time in Afghanistan and Iraq with the Marines and, later, as a CIA paramilitary officer marked him indelibly. When the Taliban began to close in on Kabul in August of 2021 and the Afghan regime began its death spiral, he found himself pulled back into the conflict. The Fifth Act is an astonishing human document that brings the weight of twenty years of war to bear on a single week at its bitter end.
